Inspector's Preliminary Findings on HBC Development Management Plan (ID/9)

Representation ID: 9761

Received: 10/03/2015

Number of people: 2

Representation Summary:

We strongly support the proposed modifications which ensure that almost all of Speckled Wood will be protected from development. This woodland valley is very important to us and the people of Ore village and it provides a "green lung" in a quite densely populated area. The redesignation of the land will provide an opportunity for community use to be firmly established and allow for proper woodland management to improve and enhance the whole area.

This alteration to the Development Management Plan will preserve the integrity of the green space in the valley.

The land next to Victoria Avenue is totally unsuitable for any form of development and any attempt to do so would severely stress the surrounding roads, drainage etc. and I do not think that the developers have any intention of building on it.

This alteration to the Development Management Plan will preserve the integrity of the green space in the valley.
